ST.  VIATBUR'S  COLLEGE 


ST.  VIATEUR'S  COLLEGE 

HISTORICAL 

St.  Viateur's  College  was  founded  in  1868  for  the 
higher  education  of  Catholic  youth.  Six  years  later  it  re- 
ceived its  University  charter  from  the  State  Legislature  of 
Illinois.  By  virtue  of  this  charter  the  institution  is  em- 
powered to  grant  degrees  in  Arts,  Sciences,  Letters  and 
Philosophy. 

Buildings.  In  a  few  years  the  first  college  building 
was  inadequate  to  accommodate  the  large  number  of  stu- 
dents who  came  to  avail  themselves  of  the  advantages  which 
St.  Viateur's  presented  for  a  liberal  education.  To  meet 
this  demand  a  new  building  was  added  in  1874  and  an  ad- 
dition was  made  in  1879.  Roy  Memorial  Chapel  was  built 
in  1889  as  a  monument  to  the  zeal  of  the  first  President, 
Father  Roy.  The  Gymnasium,  a  very  spacious  building, 
was  completed  and  equipped  in  1901.  Gradually  the  origi- 
nal plan  for  a  college  that  would  accommodate  five  hundred 
students  took  form,  but  just  as  its  completion  was  about  to 
be  reached,  St.  Viateur's  was  reduced  a  pile  of  crumbling 
ruins  by  the  fire  which  occurred  on  the  evening  of  Febru- 
ary 21,  1906.  The  destruction  was  almost  complete,  the 
n<  \\  Gymnasium  being  the  only  building  which  escaped  the 
names.  Fortunately  this  building  was  large  enough  to  be 
rmed  into  class  rooms,  study  hall,  dormitories,  and 
refectory  for  the  advanced  students. 

NEW  BUILDINGS.  Immediately  after  the  destruction  of 
the  College,  the  Hoard  of  Managers  met  and  decided  upon 
a  general  plan  for  the  disposition  of  the  buildings  requisite 
to  meet  the  needs  of  this  constantly  growing  institution. 
According  to  this  plan  the  new  College  will  consist  of  a 
double  row  of  separate  buildings  extending  north  and  south 
through  the  old  campus,  and  closed  at  the  south  by  a  chapel

facing  north.  Four  of  these  buildings  are  now  completed. 
While  the  exterior  and  general  appearance  of  the  buildings 
has  not  been  neglected  special  pains  have  been  taken  to 
make  the  interior  as  cheerful,  comfortable  and  serviceable 
as  is  consistent  with  the  purposes  of  a  college.  The  entire 
college  is  built  of  stone.  Fire-proof  material  has  been 
used,  and  to  insure  further  the  safety  of  the  students,  the 
dormitories  are  on  the  second  floor,  and  each  building  has 
two  wide,  iron  stairs.  The  most  approved  modern  appli- 
ances for  heat,  light  and  ventilation  are  used.  The  class 
rooms,  dormitories,  study  halls  and  corridors  are  spacious, 
lightsome  and  cheerful.  The  living  rooms,  pleasantly  situ- 
ated, with  east  and  west  exposures  are  commodious,  heated 
by  steam,  lighted  by  electricity  and  supplied  with  hot  and 
cold  water. 

Marsile  Alumni  Haul,  which  the  generous  and  ever 
loyal  alumni  of  St.  Viateur's  intended  as  the  completion  of 
the  original  plan,  is  the  beginning  of  the  new  plan.  This 
building,  facing  the  east,  is  160  feet  long  and  82  feet  wide, 
and  four  stories  high.  The  first  floor  is  Administration 
Floor,  the  Dormitories  occupy  the  second  floor,  and  study 
halls  and  class  rooms,  the  third  and  fourth  floors. 

Roy  Hai.Iv  contains  one  hundred  and  ten  private  rooms 
for  the  Professors,  Seminarians  and  those  students  who 
desire  to  rent  rooms.  This  four-story  building,  situated 
south  of  the  Gymnasium,  has  a  west  frontage  of  172  feet 
and  a  depth  of  50  feet. 

Gymnasium.  The  fact  that  the  only  building  which 
escaped  the  fire  was  the  new  Gymnasium,  made  it  possible 
to  have  all  the  buildings  up-to-date  in  every  detail.  The 
erection  and  outfitting  of  this  spacious  building,  which  was 
formally  opened  October  21,  1901,  are  due  to  the  generous 
assistance  received  from  former  students  of  the  College. 
Its  cost  is  estimated  at  $46,000.  The  building  presents 
a  pleasing  appearance;  it  is  a  massive  stone  structure  153

ST.  VIATBUR'S  COLLEGE 


by  97  feet.  The  interior  is  finished  in  enameled  brick  and 
Georgia  pine.  Like  the  other  College  Buildings,  it  is  lighted 
by  electricity  and  heated  by  steam.  Its  equipments  leave 
nothing  to  be  desired  in  the  way  of  facilities  for  military 
exercises,  handball,  indoor  baseball,  billiards,  pool,  bowling 
and  other  games  that  rob  the  winter  months  of  their  dreari- 
ness and  at  the  same  time  afford  excellent  opportunities  for 
healthful  physical  development.  Attached  to  the  Gym- 
nasium are  shower  baths,  closets,  reading  rooms,  armory, 
music  room,  barber  shop  and  the  confectionery  store. 
There  is  also  a  fully  equipped  stage,  and  an  auditorium 
with  a  seating  capacity  of  1,500. 

The  Heating  Plant  occupies  a  central  position  to  the 
rear  of  the  Gymnasium.  The  Webster  system  of  steam 
heat  is  installed.  In  connection  with  this  building  is  the 
public  water  works,  which  makes  the  college  system  of 
plumbing  as  complete  as  could  be  had  in  any  modern  city. 

Science  Hall  is  well  equipped  for  a  thorough  course 
in  Physics  and  Chemistry.  It  contains  four  large  rooms, 
the  Chemical  Laboratory,  the  Physical  Laboratory,  the  Lec- 
ture- Room  and  the  Private  Laboratory. 

Location.  Bourbonnais  Grove,  111.,  where  the  College 
is  situated,  is  fifty-four  miles  south  of  Chicago  and  three 
miles  north  of  Kankakee.  It  is  easy  of  access  via  Kanka- 
kee or  Bradley,  on  the  main  lines  of  the  Illinois  Central  and 
the  Big  Four,  the  IJlooniington  branch  of  the  Illinois  Cen- 
tral,  the  Chicago,  [ndiana  and  Southern,  and  the  Kankakee 
and  Seneca  railroads.  Electric  cars  run  from  Kankakee, 
through  Bradley,  to  the  College  grounds  every  half  hour. 

Proximity  to  the  great  metropolis  of  the  west,  railroad 
facilities,  the  rich  and  populous  surrounding  country  were 
not  the  only  considerations  that  induced  the  Viatorians  to 
found  a  college  at  Bourbonnais.  The  health  fulness  of  the 
location  and  the  natural  beauty  of  the  scenery  make  it  an 
ideal  spot  for  a  college.

MORAL  TRAINING 

The  education  which  the  College  wishes  to  impart  is 
that  which  procures  the  harmonious  development  of  the 
entire  man.  It  is  of  the  completest  kind,  and  embraces  both 
intellect  and  will,  the  head  and  heart,  knowledge  of  duty 
and  virtuous  habits.  Hence,  a  course  of  religious  instruc- 
tion, graded  according  to  the  capacity  of  the  students,  runs 
parallel  with  the  course  of  secular  studies. 

The  system  of  discipline  enforced  aims  mainly  at  the 
development  of  character.  Hence  the  greatest  care  is  taken 
to  instill  into  the  minds  of  the  students  those  lofty  prin- 
ciples of  Christian  morality  which  will  make  them  feel  at 
all  times  that  right  conduct  is  essential  to  manhood.  A 
supervision,  modeled  after  that  which  exists  in  every  well 
regulated  family,  is  exercised  in  all  the  departments.  The 
Professors,  whose  lives  are  devoted  exclusively  to  the  edu- 
cation of  youth,  live  with  the  students  and  mingle  with 
them  freely.  The  intimate  relations  which  arise  from  this 
friendly  intercourse  between  student  and  teacher  is  a  most 
powerful  factor  both  in  developing  good  qualities  and  in 
curbing  unworthy  tendencies  in  the  young.  While  the  gov- 
ernment of  the  College  is  mild  and  parental,  the  laws  of 
good  order,  propriety  and  morality  are  strictly  enforced. 
The  moral  influence  of  instruction,  persuasion  and  encour- 
agement is  primarily  and  mainly  relied  on,  and  is  seldom 
found  ineffectual. 

GENERAL  REGULATIONS 

Entrance.  Candidates  for  entrance  are  required  to 
bring  testimonials  of  character  and  class  standing  from  the 
school  which  they  have  last  attended.  They  are  classified 
according  to  their  previous  attainments  as  made  known  by 
these  testimonials  or,  in  lieu  of  them,  by  examination.  No 
one  is  debarred  from  matriculation  on  account  of  his  re- 
ligious opinions. 


12 


ST.  VIATEUR'S  COLLEGE 


New  students  not  presenting  credits  will  be  obliged  to 
qualify  by  examination. 

Non-Catholic  students  are  obliged  to  be  present  at  the 
ordinary  exercises  of  public  prayer  and  at  the  familiar 
talks  on  those  virtues  which  are  the  fairest  and  richest  en- 
dowments both  of  youth  and  of  manhood. 

If  a  student  loses  his  time  and  infringes  other  regula- 
tions of  the  College,  he  will  be  punished,  and  if  necessary 
expelled.  The  penalty  of  expulsion  is  incurred  also  for  ir- 
religious language  or  writings,  the  introduction  of  infidel 
or  immoral  books,  the  use  or  introduction  of  intoxicating 
liquors,  and  every  species  of  gambling. 

Any  person  wilfully  damaging  the  property  of  the  Col- 
lege must  make  compensation  for  the  same. 

All  letters  and  packages  to  and  from  the  students  shall 
be  subject  to  the  inspection  of  the  President,  or  his  repre- 
sentative. Books,  periodicals,  and  newspapers  are  likewise 
subject  to  supervision  and  approbation. 

Leave  of  absence  cannot  be  granted  to  students  during 
the  term  except  in  cases  of  urgent  necessity.  Deductions 
will  be  made  in  the  class  records  for  absence  from  reci- 
tations. 

Telegrams  and  letters  asking  privileges  for  students 
must  be  signed  by  parents  or  guardians,  and  must  be  ad- 
dressed to  the  President  of  the  College. 

Visiting  days  are  Sundays,  Tuesdays  and  Thursdays. 
Good  accommodations  for  parents  and  friends  are  easily 
obtained  in  the  village. 

The  Students  are  assigned  to  departments  according  to 
their  age,  and  have  separate  class  rooms,  dormitories,  etc. 
Ybung  men  of  \y  and  upward  are  assigned  to  the  Senior, 
14  to  17  to  the  Junior,  and  those  between  10  and  14  to 
the  Minim  department. 

Kx a m f nations  and  Premiums.  Promotion  and  pre- 
miums depend  upon  daily  records  and  periodical  examina-

tions.  Two  written  examinations  are  given  in  the  matter 
studied  before  Christmas.  The  semi-annual  oral  examina- 
tion given  at  the  end  of  the  first  term  reviews  the  first  half 
year's  work.  The  second  semi-annual  examination,  im- 
mediately before  commencement,  reviews  the  second  half 
of  the  year's  work.  In  the  meantime  two  written  examina- 
tions are  given,  one  at  the  end  of  March  and  the  other  at 
the  beginning  of  May.  Immediately  after  these  examina- 
tions the  results  are  read  to  the  student  body  before  the 
President  and  faculty.  Parents  are  kept  in  touch  with  the 
application,  deportment  and  progress  of  the  students  by  bul- 
letins sent  them  after  each  examination.  Gold  medals  and 
also  other  prizes  for  excellence  in  the  various  branches  are 
awarded  on  Commencement  day. 

COURSES  AND  METHODS  OF  INSTRUCTION 

The  Theological  Course  comprises  all  those  branches 
necessary  for  candidates  for  the  priesthood. 

The  Course  in  Letters  comprises  chiefly  Ancient  and 
Modern  Languages  and  their  Literature,  practical  lessons 
in  Literary  Criticism,  Rhetoric,  Composition,  and  Oratory. 

The  Scientific  Course,  embracing  higher  Mathemat- 
ics and  the  Physical  Sciences,  prepares  students  for  special 
University  courses  in  pharmacy,  medicine,  civil  and  me- 
chanical engineering. 

The  Collegiate  Course  embraces  all  those  studies 
that  are  required  for  a  liberal  education.  It  prepares  young 
men  for  the  study  of  law,  medicine,  theology,  and  other 
University  or  Seminary  courses. 

The  High  School  Course  prepares  the  student  for 
entrance  into  the  Freshman  class  of  the  College. 

The  Preparatory  Course  supplies  what  is  deficient  in 
the  student  for  entrance  into  the  High  School. 


14 


ST.  VIATEUR'S  COLLEGE 


The  Commercial  Course  comprises  all  the  branches 
of  a  finished  business  education.  Graduates  in  this  course 
are  awarded  diplomas  which  are  attestations  of  their  prac- 
tical business  ability. 

Special  Students.  Provisions  are  made  to  supply 
what  is  deficient  in  those  students  who  lack  some  of  the  re- 
quirements for  unconditional  entrance  to  any  regular  class. 
In  exceptional  cases  some  students  are  allowed  to  omit  or 
discontinue  a  prescribed  study.  Such  students  are  not 
eligible  for  the  Degree  of  Bachelor  of  Arts. 

Methods  of  Instruction.  In  the  earlier  years  of  each 
course  the  method  of  questions  and  answers  is  followed; 
this  method  is  combined  with  the  lecture  system  in  the  more 
advanced  classes.  The  most  approved  text  books  are  placed 
in  the  hands  of  the  students,  and  teachers  avail  themselves 
of  every  advantage  which  the  progress  of  pedagogical  sci- 
ence affords  in  order  to  further  the  rapid  and  solid  ad- 
vancement of  their  pupils. 

DEGREES 

The  act  of  the  Legislature  under  which  St.  Viateur's 
College  was  incorporated  empowers  the  Board  of  Managers 
"to  confer  such  academic  degrees  and  honors  as  are  con- 
ferred by  Colleges  and  Universities  of  the  United  States."

LIBRARY 

The  students'  Library,  which  before  the  fire  contained 
about  20,000  volumes,  will  practically  have  to  be  started 
over  anew  as  only  about  2,000  books  were  saved.  We  take 
this  occasion  to  appeal  to  our  friends  to  help  in  founding 
a  library  that  will  surpass  the  one  destroyed.  Special  li- 
braries may  be  donated  to  the  different  societies  and  be 
named  after  the  donor.  So  far  we  gratefully  acknowledge 
the  receipt  of  several  hundred  volumes  from  the  late  Rev. 
J.  J.  Callaghan,  Butte,  Montana;  Rev.  M.  A.  Dooling,  of 
Henry,  Illinois,  and  Hon.  W.  J.  Onahan,  of  Chicago.  An 
annual  fee  of  one  dollar  is  imposed  on  every  student.  This 
revenue  is  used  for  the  improvement  of  the  library.

The  Viatorian  is  a  monthly  publication  in  which  the

feasts,  the  doings  of  the  various  dramatic,  musical,  literary, 
oratorical,  athletic  and  military  organizations  of  the  insti- 
tutions. These  accounts,  together  with  columns  of  personal 
notes,  are  of  interest  to  former  students.  The  Viatorian 
also  records  the  monthly  progress  of  students  and  publishes 
the  list  of  winners  of  distinctions  at  the  regular  readings 
of  the  class,  and  conduct  notes.  Thus  the  monthly  visits  of 
the  College  journal  inform  parents  and  guardians  of  the 
.advancement  of  their  children  and  wards.

ST.  VIATEUR'S  COLLEGE 


The  College  journal  first  appeared  in  1882,  and  it  has 
ever  been  the  ambition  of  the  students  to  maintain  the  high 
standard  of  excellence  which  has  won  them  the  encourage- 
ment of  a  host  of  friends  as  well  as  the  most  complimentary 
notices  of  other  College  journals.
